A Fire in Atlantis by Benn Lyrics
Let go of everything, everything
Let go of everything, everything, Let go of sin
When we ask for sun, he gives us rain
(Let go of everything and I, let go of everything, everything.)
And we ask for guidance now and he refrains
(Let go of everything and I, let go of everything, everything.)
But we see him when we close our eyes
And he knows what’s at stake
We can’t help but feel the future is to blame
I’m drowning. And we only serve the withered man
Drowning, for his silence and his callous hand
Drowning, Choking, Almost, Breathing
While I’m setting stones
I’m drowning, and we only serve the withered man
I die alone in the end
And he asks for love and he teaches us with pain
(Let go of everything and I, let go of everything, everything.)
I could say the prayers, but they don’t feel the same
(Let go of everything and I, let go of everything, everything.)
And I know this man, he looks like me
But he knows things I don’t
I’m afraid this man was sent to cast the stones
I die alone in the end
I’m drowning. And we only serve the withered man
Drowning. He will lead us from this hellish land
Drowning, Choking, Almost, Breathing. While I’m setting stones
(I’m drowning, I’m drowning, oh I drown. I drown.)
And we only serve the withered…
All the chains in hell couldn’t hold me down
Yeah as they try to hold my fucking crown
And we only serve the withered man
All the chains in hell couldn’t hold me down
Yeah as they try to hold my fucking crown. (Drowning.)
He will lead us from this hellish land
Drowning, Choking, Almost, Breathing
Drowning. And we only serve the withered man
I die alone in the end
Let go of everything, everything, Let go of sin
When we ask for sun, he gives us rain
(Let go of everything and I, let go of everything, everything.)
And we ask for guidance now and he refrains
(Let go of everything and I, let go of everything, everything.)
But we see him when we close our eyes
And he knows what’s at stake
We can’t help but feel the future is to blame
I’m drowning. And we only serve the withered man
Drowning, for his silence and his callous hand
Drowning, Choking, Almost, Breathing
While I’m setting stones
I’m drowning, and we only serve the withered man
I die alone in the end
And he asks for love and he teaches us with pain
(Let go of everything and I, let go of everything, everything.)
I could say the prayers, but they don’t feel the same
(Let go of everything and I, let go of everything, everything.)
And I know this man, he looks like me
But he knows things I don’t
I’m afraid this man was sent to cast the stones
I die alone in the end
I’m drowning. And we only serve the withered man
Drowning. He will lead us from this hellish land
Drowning, Choking, Almost, Breathing. While I’m setting stones
(I’m drowning, I’m drowning, oh I drown. I drown.)
And we only serve the withered…
All the chains in hell couldn’t hold me down
Yeah as they try to hold my fucking crown
And we only serve the withered man
All the chains in hell couldn’t hold me down
Yeah as they try to hold my fucking crown. (Drowning.)
He will lead us from this hellish land
Drowning, Choking, Almost, Breathing
Drowning. And we only serve the withered man
I die alone in the end
